Determine maximum shearing stress in pipe caused by torsion


While an oil well is being drilled at a depth of 6000 ft, it is observed that the top of the 8-in.-diameter steel drill pipe rotates though two complete revolutions before the drilling bit starts to rotate. Using G 5 11.2 3 106 psi, determine the maximum shearing stress in the pipe caused by torsion.
